This is not the first time that Khrushchev has spoken about retirement, as he has talked about when he should retire on various occasions, in meetings with foreign ambassadors, on vacations at the beach, and even in conversations with local cadres. www.biquge.info Since two years ago, Khrushchev has been talking more and more about retirement, and he has not forgotten to mention it while receiving congratulations from other members of the Presidium of the Central Committee on his birthday.

It can be said that among the members of the Presidium of the Central Committee present, there is no longer anyone who has not heard of him on the topic of retirement and succession. However, this is the first time that other members of the presidium have been specially summoned and said in front of all the members that they want to retire.

"Comrade Khrushchev, what are you talking about? Look at your own body, like a young lad, you have a lot of energy, and you can continue to lead us. Brezhnev began to hold on as if reflexively.

Beginning with Brezhnev, the other members of the Presidium of the Central Committee opened their mouths to keep them, whether they were sincere or not. Anyway, it's not the first time they've faced this situation in the past few years.

Khrushchev's energy is indeed not bad, not like an old man in his twilight years, he is very happy to keep him, but he still shook his head firmly and said, "I know that I am already an old man in his seventies, and in two years I will be almost seventy-five years old, and as a leader of a country, I am too old." The continued leadership of the USSR by a seventy-five-year-old man was also an obstacle to the great image of our country, and the fact that I have always led the country will create the impression that there are no young cadres in the USSR, which will make the Americans blame us. ”

"I never thought I would lead the country until I died, I was not Stalin. I wanted to establish a new standard, different from Stalin's cruel system of elimination. So I spared Malenkov and Molotov, and I hope that our cause can be developed by cadres of different ages. At this time, Khrushchev no longer slapped the table at the UN General Assembly, nor was he the arrogant arrogance that usually reprimanded other members of the Central Presidium. More like an ordinary old man, "I see you all as my friends and comrades, and sometimes I get angry easily, I'm sorry." ”

"During my tenure, there were many problems in the Soviet Union, but today I must say that strong control like Stalin's will not work in peacetime, the people will not endure endlessly, and of course there are some problems with excessive relaxation, and I have also seen that my reforms have not all succeeded, but not all have failed." Khrushchev said very sadly, "I may not see the day when we will completely defeat the United States, but I am willing to lay a foundation for you, my old friends are gone, and I don't know if Comrade Torriati will be able to get through this difficulty." ”

However, this year was not all good news. Dores died on the steamship Lithuania, while he was on vacation in the Mediterranean; The Chairman of the Council of Ministers of the German Democratic Republic, Grotivov, died. Torriatti, chairman of the Italian Council of Ministers and general secretary of the Communist Party, suddenly collapsed at an event of the Young Pioneers, and was now in the process of being rescued, and the Soviet government had just issued a condolence in two days.

"Isn't the first secretary a little sad? We, the communists, should not indulge in sentimentality. If it is because some foreign comrades have passed away, so the mood is a little low, I can understand it very much, and I think the first secretary can consider taking a month off to get rid of this mood. After relaxing for a while, let's talk about it. Serov began, "Maurice. Comrade Torres and Comrade Grotivo have gone through the course of their lives, and although we are a little sad, we should not be affected, first secretary, let me accompany you around the Soviet Union and let you see the country now. ”

"Well, I believe that Comrade Brezhnev, Comrade Kosygin, Comrade Sherepin can manage the whole country while I am resting, and I will take a month off." Khrushchev nodded, approving Serov's proposal.

Brezhnev left as usual, making a thoughtful look in the car, so that Kirilenko next to him did not dare to gasp, he had never seen Brezhnev appear like this.

"Ilyich, what were you thinking?" When he got home, Kirilenko asked what he was wondering about.

"I wonder if I'll retire on my own when I'm in my seventies!" Brezhnev answered his comrades-in-arms very seriously, and this answer is no, unless he also makes a group of young people who support him, just like Khrushchev promoted Sherepin. But this is impossible, and this group of people will first go to support Sherepin.

Brezhnev was now a weak second secretary, he was, of course, Khrushchev's chosen successor, but among the members of the Presidium of the Central Committee, Kosygin, together with his right and left assistants, occupied three positions. Although Sherepin was only himself, his support for the Central Committee members was the highest among the three. Brezhnev does not seem to be at any level, and even the side that suffers.

At this time, Serov is very in line with one sentence, or not one sentence but a few sentences, such as coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, or a fox and a fake tiger or something, he who came out with the first secretary to relax, has a feeling of pretending to be forced to fly with you.

"It's a good choice to come out for a spin, the old man should combine work and rest, isn't it much better now." Serov accompanied Khrushchev in the resort town of Sochi, next to the Black Sea, enjoying the nice climate here. Sochi was defined in the Soviet Union as a resort city that received people from all over the Soviet Union every year, at any time of the year.

Of course, at present, the KGB is working on the establishment of tourist routes in Indonesia, and the environment in Indonesia is more suitable for vacations, but it is a pity that Serov was in Indonesia last time every day to prevent someone from killing him, and even the Ministry of Internal Affairs has not gone out a few times. Now it is possible to bring back the fruits of that time to the USSR.

"If Comrade Torriati can't stand it this time, will Italy return to the arms of the United States?" Khrushchev, who looked relaxed, seemed to have shaken off his sadness, and when he asked this question, he did not have personal feelings in mind.

"Perhaps, but the Communist Party has been in power for so many years, first of all, half of the investigation of Catholicism in Italy has been half and half, and the remaining half of Italians are not very sincere. It is more believed that religion is a carrier of traditional culture, and in addition, Italy has been rapidly becoming Yugoslav for more than a decade, and neutrality is very obvious. Italy has almost established a political structure of two major parties, and it is not possible for the United States to counteract this influence in a short period of time. Serov knew that the communist parties of these countries ultimately depended on the winner of the Soviet Union and the United States.

It is impossible not that once a power supported by the Soviet Union comes to power, it will never go down. How is it possible for the state not to make a mistake at all? Even if he had the memory to get the first shot, he still couldn't avoid all the mistakes. Otherwise Lumumba in the Congo would not have died, and today's Congo should be a pro-Soviet country. But the key point was that he just forgot about this country at that time, how can this be reasonable......

Under the noses of the four major clusters of the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, the communist parties of the Western European countries lived very comfortably. This is the treatment that socialists in other countries do not have, and the millions of troops of the United States and the Soviet Union in Europe have forced the two countries to talk and laugh and be hypocrites there, shouting for peace in their mouths.

"Father, there's a message from the Lubyanka." Khrushchev's son Sergei came in and said, the two immediately followed Khrushchev in, this is the Soviet Union's special line confidential telephone, this kind of telephone, also in socialist China, is used for the communication of secret matters, because it is all red, so it is commonly known as the "red machine", only important leaders at or above the ministerial level can be equipped at home. Sergey, Khrushchev's son, who was at home, picked up the phone, and the other party was an unfamiliar voice looking for Serov.

This kind of telephone is naturally not completely flawless, as long as Serov wants to, he can fully know the content of the red telephone communication.

"Comrade Togliatti still died of illness, hey!" Khrushchev sighed and said, "I don't know how relations between Italy and our USSR will develop in the future." ”

"We have already figured out what we need to figure out, and in the future, our strength will surpass that of the United States, and those so-called allies will naturally turn!" Serov was referring to the light industrial technology acquired by the Soviet Union through the construction of factories in Italy. At least for now, there is no clear technological difference between the two countries.

In his capacity as First Secretary of the Soviet Union and Chairman of the Council of Ministers, Khrushchev I, who was recuperating in Sochi, expressed his condolences over the death of Comrade Parimorotoriatti, Chairman of the Italian Council of Ministers and General Secretary of the Communist Party of Italy. In recent months, Khrushchev has bid farewell to several foreign Communist Party leaders, and it may be that the death of these foreign Communist Party leaders one after another has given Khrushchev the idea of retirement.

Serov, who followed Khrushchev back from Sochi, was instantly asked if Khrushchev had changed his mind. Serov's answer was to shake his head, saying that he did not ask Khrushchev whether he really wanted to retire.

Khrushchev himself answered this question, and he did not change his attention, saying that he still decided to retire in two years, hoping that in the remaining two years, the other members of the Central Presidium would unite and burst out with the greatest energy, and he himself seemed to see whether the Soviet leadership after his retirement would lead the country well.
